El misterio de Marilyn Monroe: Las cintas inéditas

An intriguing documentary which uses the real life voice recordings of Marilyn Monroe and the many people who knew her both before and after she became a mega star. Though we ultimately know how this tragic story ends, Marilyn is still ravishing and lovely enough to hold our attention. When one sees her remastered film clips in this documentary, it's easy to understand why the world fell in love with her and why she continues to captivate so many to this day.

This is a riveting and well-produced documentary of a fascinating story. The incredible thing is that it's a real story. "I would say that it was covered up because of her connection with the Kennedy Brothers." Only half of the reality. Clearly (from these accounts) Marilyn Monroe was dangled as an unwitting conduit to the highest offices of the US Government by the Soviets during the cold war. This connection was known by a very anti-communist FBI whose machine forced the Kennedy brothers to sever ties rapidly and cleanly. Marilyn--an ideal candidate to be dangled--was very insecure, emotionally susceptible, and in need of being needed, and she was unable to sustain the emotional quagmire she had gotten herself into. A last attempt on Robert Kennedy's part to try to intervene into her emotional break was unsuccessful. In times like this there is no recourse but to clean up a horrid mess that ensued. It happens more than we want to know. Kudos for this investigative reporter to put this story straight, though he dances too lightly around the Soviet involvement, mostly because he can't puncture that sphere. So, there it is. "She killed herself either intentionally or accidentally. This case is closed." That is true.

Narratively this is absolutely all over the place. No structure, no new information, nothing revelatory at all. It careers around regurgitating stuff we already knew, hints at a few things but is such a mess it never even bothers to provide any real interesting information. Crap, even for Netflix.

There's absolutely nothing you haven't seen or heard before about Marylin and the Kennedys. There's no new evidence to prove and affair. It's just tapes of people who knew her talking as actors lip sync. It's actually pretty boring.

Was dissappointed after new audio and footage still singing same old suicide song. Why can't anybody ever hold kennedys accountable for anything? She did not kill herself. The pills were not in her stomach, the blood pooling was on her back. Please someone tell the truth.
